It is a myth that has gained control of many on the Right in this country that the law is not on the side of the people. It is an outright lie to claim our nation is anywhere close to communism. The worst force to hit the USA has been Fox News because of the way it forced the news industry to become entertainment instead of informational. As a result, the more outlandish the story, the more some are willing to believe there is a secret conspiracy to overthrow our freedom by liberals.
